Might aswell. F it. I need to find a Corvette FB group again or local groups.
But again if I don't like the Black z06 I can bring it back, bc im really liking the silver FRC (shifts waaayyy smother) And I think there's something wrong with the Silver z06 (the one I wanted to buy) carfax said that thing been sitting for a year 🤔

Did you have a car cover or garage kept though? The Silver Z06 don't have any records of should've said lol from previous owner. Says 6 but don't see 4 and 5, I seen from 1998 and 2016 so he/she had it for 19 years and a couple months. It's all good though, they will be projects anyways. Of course the FRC is cheaper 🙄 , but rides smoother.

sat outside uncovered for my first three years of ownership (2010-2013)... then i bought a house with a garage. still don't own a cover.
last couple years, i've traded it places with the tractor throughout the winter (car goes in the barn & tractor in the garage) just to make plowing my driveway much easier. once the car goes in, it don't come out 'til spring. i put its battery in my basement just to keep from cold-soaking it.
